He is an extremely good professor. He is one the best math teachers I have ever had. He obviously cares if you learn the material and gives you all the resources needed to succeed in class. His tests are not really easy but if you put some effort in his class you will do well.

He is very young and unexperienced I think. He's more concerned about the grade average of the class than the actual progress of his students, that's why he let's you do test corrections. This way half of the class makes an "A". Quite a frustrating experience for good students when they get thrown in the same pot with the "average" Math student.

It was an easy class for me (but I had algebra before).He is pretty good in explaining and tests are fairly easy as he does not put any diffiult or comples problems.So if you know that basic material you will pass tests.Annoying part-he knows he is hot and he boasts about it plus he talks about his family a lot.

Mr Bickham REALLY cares about his students. But, unorthodox teaching style combined with too little homework (all on the computer), and you end up having to teach alot of stuff to yourself without getting the practice and repitition this particular course demands. Had to retake with a teacher who gave tons of WRITTEN hw and got an A.

He is always available. Teaches with enthusiasm and knows his stuff. He will through in math history and stories to make things interesting. I hate math and have a hard time learning it. This is my second class with him and have learned a lot. He is a great teacher.

Math has ALWAYS been really difficult for me. Took his and Mrs. Izzards combined developmental/College Algebra class. It was 5 days a week, which was pretty draining. However, after many attempts, I FINALLY GOT my College Algebra credit with their help. They are excellent teachers & care about their students. Group studying is IMPORTANT!

I do not have a strong math back him and Mrs. Himes class was a life saver. They broke things down to where you could fully understand and your notes matched up with homework. They work the problems out step by step and show you how to get from point A to point B. I would recommend for any student especially ones who struggle with math!!

Mr. B helps his students understand concepts on a basic level. If you show up and do your homework, youll pass. He really makes sure his students fully grasp the learning objectives and continues to drill that down until it becomes second nature. Ive taken math 1314 twice before and Mr. B is the absolute best. Not boring and super funny!

The class isn't considered an easy A because you do have to put in the time to understand it like every math class. The syllabus was 3 tests, 100 points each, homework is worth 100, and final is worth 200 points, which I really didn't thank was fair. Professor is clear when teaching and happy to help. Tip: do all the homework to get an A!

I took the algebra express class with Ms. G for my tsi credit. Let me say prof B Is amazing. He explains math in a way that is easy to understand. He relates math to real life and hes funny. All of his lectures were really good because hes good at what he does. Be ware he is kinda forgetful and you may need to remind him about things he misses.

Probably the easiest math class I've taken. I'm terrible at math but Mr Bickham made the lectures easy to understand. My only critique is he takes FOREVER to grade. Like don't expect your test grade until 2 weeks after you've taken the test. That goes for your final too. Still I would 100% take him again because he's really good at teaching.

You NEED to attend the lectures, and participate. The textbook is full of sample problems but otherwise unhelpful. Professor Bickham's lectures are way better than the textbook, and he's quite funny, but expect heavy exams and attend every class. Ask questions or fall behind. If you ask questions and consistently attend class, it's a mostly easy A.

Wouldn't take again

Only take if there are no other teachers, as he forgets to mute himself when he was talking with his wife or during a test which was rather rude. Never answered his emails so if you are having trouble good luck. His reviews were nothing like his test so just study the whole section/HW to be ready for the test.

Super personable and will always make you feel comfortable asking questions. He's an excellent instructor and makes math understandable and not so intimidating. If you attend and engage in lecture and do all the homework (there's a fair amount) you'll do well on exams. Would love to take him for all my math classes.

He was a great teacher of online college algebra, just slightly overwhelming. It was online, there was a homework assignment due every day, and a test every other week. Made the concepts easy to understand and was fun in class, but if you're taking a lot of other classes, wouldn't recommend

I took him for developmental and college algebra at the same time. You need to show up and participate or you won't understand what's going on. Ask questions, he is happy to help. There is a lot of homework! This class was difficult and time-consuming, but I enjoyed it. He does his best to make lectures enjoyable and is very funny. Take him 100%!

His lectures are entertaining. Tests are not like the practice test. He is afraid people have copies of the test, and frequently changes the questions before the test. He jokes about people that are tardy. If you have to take this class do all the work and the harder stuff will be on the test. Office hours are so bad. Don't be tardy to the party!

A great class to take! I failed this class due to a lack of study but overall it's a good course if you attend every class and do the homework. Homework helps so much so I recommend doing it. Overall the professor is nice and always answers questions no matter what!

I took his MATH1325 BUS CALC over summer & I have never taken a more unreasonable class in my life. He only has 2 office hrs a week so you can never ask for help. He refuses to curve despite 1/2 the class dropping the course & the exam averages are 60%. FOUR HWs due every 24hrs so prepare to not have a life outside class. Would not take again.

Took his 1325 Bus Calc class, holy crap.He grades so slowly! He treats this class as if it happens in-person. For an online class, IT CANT BE TREATED AS THAT!!! His grading was tough, there are ridiculous homework assignments only worth 15%.Whole grade is 4 test with NO CURVE. Only 19/35 students left. Don't expect to know your grade at any point.
